account.” Steward took something from his briefcase. “Kenton has five brothers. All of

them equally well thought of and having good jobs. Mother, Aisha, raised them pretty

much on her own, as the father wasn’t in the picture much. Abusive bastard, but he’s

dead now. ‘Accidental’ shooting is all I’ve been able to unearth on that.”

“And he’s hooked up with Emma now. Why?” Steward said that he didn’t know

what the connection was other than what he’d read in the letter. “So he’s found himself

in love with her. A daughter of a murderer, and that doesn’t bother him.”

“Apparently not. I would say that she’s either hoodwinked him or she has found

herself in a good situation. I doubt she loves him. If she’s anything like her mother, I’d

say she’s just using the bastard to hide from you.” Baldwin asked him why he thought

that. “Isn’t that the reason that Anderson married Bartholomew in the first place? To

piss you off?”

“Yes. And see what that got her.” He thought about his little girl and wondered

what she’d think of all this. “Anderson claimed to have loved Gentry. And like a fool, I

thought I could get him to do what I wanted because of that. But all he thought of was

himself and what things would bring to him. Then all of the sudden, he just up and

turns into a nice guy with morals. Fucking moron. I thought that was what got

Anderson killed, but I wonder now if he was cutting ties with Bart when he found out

the idiot worked with me and that was why Bart did it.”

That was the truth. Baldwin really did come to believe that Gentry loved Anderson,

though for the life of him he could not figure out why. Anderson was his daughter, yes,

but she wasn’t a nice person. Hadn’t been for a very long time before Gentry had come

along and said he loved her.

Baldwin had hated that he couldn’t control either of them, and that was what

pissed him off more than anything. Not once did they come running to him when he

tried to bring them down behind their backs, nor did his daughter heel when he told

her too. No, Gentry had turned into a good guy, and he was sure that was what had

gotten his little girl killed that night. Bart, for all his undying love of his mother, had

killed her as surely as if he’d pulled the trigger himself.

Baldwin often wondered what sort of hold he had over her. Bart would have one

too. He could dig deeper into someone’s life than the men working for him could. That

wouldn’t be the only reason that Anderson was killed. No, she had made as many

enemies as he had. But it mattered little. Bart and Emma had had their own mother

killed, and that had sort of been the icing on the cake for him.

“Find out where he lives.” Steward handed him something else. He looked it over,

all the addresses for the entire bunch of them. “Good. Send someone to the mother’s

house. There will be a gathering, no doubt, if we put the squeeze on her.
